Hi all,

How can I retrieve the description for a specific object ( program, class, domain etc)?  Is there a FM that I can use or the description in saved in a DD table?

Thank you

If you have the object type as well (like PROG, DTEL, DOMA etc.), you can try calling REPOSITORY_INFO_SYSTEM_TEXT with MODE = space.

- If you ask for object type description, use FM TRINT_OBJECT_TABLE to get their list with description.

- For single object there is almost one table per object type : DD01T, DD02T, DD03T, DD04T, TRDIRT, TFTIT, TLIBT, SEOCLASSTX, etc. (Perform a where used from technical info get from F1 key in theire respective maintenance transaction : SE1, SE38, SE37, SE24, etc.)

Regards,

Raymond
